| General description: | Stearoyl ethanolamide, also called N-stearoylethanolamine (NSE) is present ubiquitously in all mammals. It exists in three isoforms when synthesized. It has therapeutic potential to modulate immune and inflammatory responses. It also possess antioxidative and membranoprotective functionality. NSE molecules pack in tail-to-tail fashion in lipid bilayer. |
